The weblog of Irfan Yusuf, bush lawyer, humorist and award-winning author, once a small-c conservative but now politically left right out. His often irreverent take on things appears in some newspapers in Australia and New Zealand and online. His comic memoir "Once Were Radicals: My Years As A Teenage Islamo-fascist" was published in May 2009 and won the Iremonger Award for Public Issues Writing.

UPDATE: Stuff recently published ...

You can find out about my mixed feelings toward the Camden Muslim school development by clicking onto the ABC's magnificent Unleashed website here. And here I take a short trip down memory lane through the warzone that was once (and in some ways still is) my birthplace of Karachi.

Jason Burke's superb On The Road To Kandahar has been recently reviewed in the Canberra Times, and it has been reproduced in full here.

I have a few things to say about Mormons, alleged apostates and other American presidential undesirables in NewMatilda.comhere. Gee the new-look website is looking magnificent.

Irfan, I left a message of peace on the "unleashed" website of ABC. Many of the messages were full of hate from all sides of the story (Camden Muslim School debate). However I find it strange that my views have not been included amongst the hundred or so other messages that are there. Do you know if this site filters out any posts that try to unite people?
